Is on the first team bench every week since his arrival in the UK at Peterborough & has been playing in the EFL Cup games & looks to have done well last night V Northampton including an assist from a clearance - https://www.theposh.com/news/2017/oc...-on-03-oct-17/
Made his first team debut today and kept his club in the cup with a late save V Tranmere - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/41785481
Seems to have had another very good outing in the Checktrade Trophy tonight in the derby Vs Cambridge Utd & is credited with several fine saves.

So after several good outings in the lesser competitions, he took the keeper spot for a league points game for the first time yesterday, he's in the side.

Bad outing for him yesterday in Rochdale.
When I read that, I had visions of Darren Randolph's 8-goal nightmare a few years ago, so 2-0 isn't catastrophic - he could do with a couple of wins soon, though, if he wants to keep his place - nice to see that we now have two young 'keepers playing in League One.Quote:

We have been on about Lawlor for so long. Amazing to think he's only 23.
Both could really push on.
Dropped for tonights game away to Charlton.
Chris Forrester back into the starting team though.
As we are presently casting a wide net in goalkeeping terms, worth a mention that O'Malley retook the goalie spot for Peterborough's game today, which they drew and the point moved them back into the last Championship p/o position. Let's see if he holds the shirt this time.

Started again today in the 1-1 away at Rotherham, reports credit him with several fine stops including a first half one on one V Anthony Forde.
Friend of mine was there, said he did look good but will need to tidy up his kicking.
The away point was not enough to hold the final play off spot due to Plymouth winning, helped by two from Graham Carey.

Played again in the 2-0 derby win over Northampton on Monday, clean sheet and an important save at 0-0, the win took his side up to fifth, but Plymouth / Scunthorpe being postponed had a lot to do with that as well. Next up is Graham Careys Plymouth on Saturday away, huge game in the play off scrap in L1 where one point separates fifth from ninth.

Only eleven players make the new Peterborough managers retained list and O'Malley is one. Good lad.

Got a chance tonight, in the FA Cup replay V Bradford City, rarely seen this season due to an injury and the new manager bringing in his own keeper.
Let four in during the game, in a four all draw, but saved three penalties in the following shoot out while a lad who scored a hat trick in normal time, of course missed his penalty. His club will now play Middlesbrough in the third round.

Just saw the highlights there. He was all over the shop for three of the four goals during the game itself. Didn't we have another keeper who did something very similar recently, saved a few in the shootout after having a ropy enough match?
O'Hara ?
Yep... that was it.
https://www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/...save-1-8743754 another eventful day for him and a pen save. think is his first league start this season. same age as lawlor
dropped today after last weeks drubbing
Yeah, that is his fourth, (I think) time getting in, but not holding the spot.Quote:

He was beaten twice, once by a pen and lobbed once after a shot was blocked, in a 2-2 away draw.
EDIT - Just seen it, he was actually lobbed after he got caught in two minds, twice, about coming off his line, no covering player covered themselves in glory but he didn't either.
He's not very good, is he Crafty?Quote:

He had been fine up to that. His defence all switched off too to be fair, collective brain fart.Quote:

It's like when Mark O'Brien or Tommie Hoban's threads are bumped, but instead of an injury we have news of another mistake. :)
